[swfmill] www.swfmill.org offline
Does anybody know, what happened to the swfmill-project? Did it move? I just watched the introductionvideo for the project AsProject at http://www.asserttrue.com/articles/2007/04/04/introducing-asproject To install asproject with Ruby you need swfmill installed. Does anybody have the latest Exe-File for Windows? Markus ___ swfmill mailing list swfmill@osflash.org http://osflash.org/mailman/listinfo/swfmill_osflash.org

I couldn't get hold of Dan (yet), but left a message and sent an SMS. I'm sure it'll be fixed soon if he's somewhere near a net connection, which unfortunately isn't a given these days.

[swfmill] readpng license incompatibility; swfmill distribution (temporarily) stopped.
Dear List, i have been made aware of a small license breach in swfmill's use of Greg Roelof's sample code for using libpng to read PNG files. It was published under a 3-clause BSD license requiring advertisement of the author's copyright with all distribution, which is incompatible with the GPL, swfmill's favoured license. Until the situation has cleared up, i have stopped distribution of swfmill's source and binary archives. I have asked Greg for permission/relicensing of the code, to allow me to put the stuff back online. If i/we dont get permission, we'll have to rewrite the functionality. It's not a major problem, but as usual i might be lacking the time for it, and also i currently don't have access to my usual machine for compilation on Windows and OSX, so it might take a while to get back to the distribution standard you've gotten accustomed to. Meanwhile, i hope for your understanding. -dan ___ swfmill mailing list swfmill@osflash.org http://osflash.org/mailman/listinfo/swfmill_osflash.org

So, Greg has turned out to be a nice guy, and gave permission right
away:

I have no interest in being petty
about this--and I've already been leaning toward copyleft licensing
in my other projects over the last few years--so I've decided to go
ahead and dual-license the pngbook code (readpng{,2}, writepng,
rpng{,2}-{x,win}, wpng) under the GNU GPL v2 or later. You may take
this message as explicit permission insofar as it's likely to be a
while before I actually get around to releasing a new version of the
code--I'm working on XV right now and have pngcheck and a couple
others queued up next.
and
I'm fine with the current change applying to the old code, too;
Thanks to Greg for the png reading code that swfmill has ever been
using! And thanks to Miriam Ruiz for pointing it out (and working on a
debian pkg)!
swfmill.org is now back to normal, with all release binaries (and
source) back online.
Sorry for the interruption ;) I thought better be safe than sorry..
